AIG poaches Bermuda country manager from XL Catlin

American International Group (AIG) has hired XL Catlin's Catherine Duffy to join the company’s general insurance business as country manager of Bermuda.

With nearly 30 years of experience, Duffy is said to be a veteran of the Bermuda international insurance market. She was most recently senior vice president and underwriting manager for XL Bermuda. Duffy held numerous underwriting leadership roles, including senior vice president, excess liability at Torus Insurance Bermuda and vice president, underwriting at XL Insurance (Bermuda).

In her new role, Duffy will oversee AIG’s insurance operations and strategy in Bermuda, reporting to Lex Baugh, chief executive officer of North America General Insurance. Duffy will work closely with product leadership to drive innovation and service excellence for our clients and distribution partners. She will serve as AIG’s principal liaison with the Bermuda Monetary Authority and other local stakeholders.
